No Stim to test your build? They would have included the pullup resistors for free i think. The PWM mod is the one they charge for if i'm not mistaken.
I'll be ordering the same things though, +Stim & +USB adapter for the board.
I don't have any computers with DB9, plenty with USB though. My total was an even $300.

the PWM mod is the idle mod correct?

my total w/o cables (its a standard serial cable...I've got those) is looking around $370 shipped or so for the assembled and sensors...no harness though.

So, you've ordered it on your own?

no, not yet, I just totaled everything up. I might wait a few weeks till I get my new rear end actually in the car and running for before I go and try to max the credit card out...

I have the stim from a friend so there is no point of buying one
I'm getting the harness, sensors and the usb mod soon - in around 2 weeks

I can't at the moment, I just picked up a manifold and downpipe instead...if we could get around the paypal fees it would be a great deal.

But I may just go ahead and wait, and do the mods an everything myself sometime late spring/early summer.

I work about 20-25 minutes away from DIY... perhaps they would let me drop off checks from everyone or something?

I would prefer not to pay paypal fees if possible...

hmm
just make out checks/money order to DIY and have you deliver them? Drop them an email and see if they will let you do it.

paypal fees arn't an issue if you have a "personal" account. since I registered mine as a business account intending to use it for my LLC (which never happened) I get charged... my buddies that just use it for ebay don't. One person could accept all the paypals then write a check to DIY for the whole deal.

I could be wrong, but I think there has been a paypal deduction every time I get money from someone via paypal.

We need to get this going soon. I am starting to think my soldering skills are up to task in making it. So if we dont get it going soon I might just attempt to build it.

I agree... I'd like to see this move forward.

My wife has agreed to buy this as a birthday gift, but if it takes too long, she'll probably go and spend the money on clothes for me.

I'd much rather have the MS than new clothes!!!

i think its free if u are doing what they call an instant transfer... thats funds that are in your PP account already and not comming from a bank or credit card. And you have to have the personal membership, not the premiear one.... i think everyone has the premier one i do, and didnt even know it
